Why isn't toothpaste FDA approved?

Because “FDA” (The United States Food and Drug Administration) is in charge of protecting the health of the American public through the regulation of food, dr.ugs, and medical devices… it doesn’t have anything to do with toothpaste.

Some toothpastes are “ADA” approved though, meaning they are approved by the American Dental Association. They are the ones who deal with toothpaste, not the FDA.

way to complicate my simple response, lol just joking ;P

Oh ok, I see, I had just seen a commercial for a toothpaste and it said it was the only one FDA approved so it just got me thinking, thx for the clearing up

Lol, no problem… :P

its because toothpaste is made out of flouride which breaks down the enamel on your tooth causing more cavities! so its bad for you!!!! DX

If toothpaste is bad then wat shud u use?

you should use hot water its what i do and i havent got cavities =P

its just my conspiracy theory though so im not sure if toothpaste is actually bad. It would make sense though that way dentists will be sure they will get business and people are happy cause their teeth are white

Lol… then what do you suppose we brush our teeth with? Your answer is not correct. Fluoride actually strengthens your teeth, and protects the enamel.

I brush my teeth with hot and gargle lmouth wash and like i said i have never experience any cavities but my sister has so many and she brushes her teeth with toothpaste.

Maybe bakeing soda and water :-/
